A pretty good post over on the “Tough Questions Answered” blog. This one is about a discussion by two biochemists who disagree about the ability of e. coli to adapt under survival situations. You can find the post here.

We learn about the world through evidence, not through the existence of arguments, or even the conviction of the parties involved.

Two biochemists having a disagreement about how the world works. There’s nothing new here. Scientists have been arguing, proving each other false, forever. This is how science works and how we keep ourselves intellectually honest – we are forced into it.
